The "I am an NES student" code is central to everything we do here at the New English School. We believe that instilling these key values in our students guides and enables them to become well-rounded individuals, with the skills to succeed as a respected member of the community.
We encourage all members of our school community to measure themselves against these standards, with our staff leading by example.
